Linux USB/PCI Support for HomePNA 2.0?

Posted by Cliff on from the lets-try-this-one-again dept.

Uttles asks: "In reference to this previous article asking about HomePNA support, does anyone out there know of any support for HomePNA 2.0 on Linux that is good for USB PNA devices? I have a 2Wire PC Port and my roommate has a Linksys PNA device and we both have to use Windows for them to work. Needless to say, we'd really like it if we could use Linux. Also, for those that say the companies aren't providing support, The HomePNA 2.0 PCI card drivers are in the Linksys beta area."

    A good question for Dr. (?) John Price is if the FAQ against Brad is
    legit, then why is it just hosted on throwaway abuse domains???
    It was hosted on www.lart.com, but apparently the company that
    provided the server for that abuse domain took it off! It is now
    hosted on www.wilhelp.com -- a domain ficticiously and falsely
    registered (the person registered as the domain owner is not the owner
    and the domain's responsible person's (owner's) address is bogus).

    This should tell you something about the "FAQ". It is personal,
    in large part false, and it is libelous/slanderous/defamatory.

    If you are told anything else about this personal vindictive and
    malicious "FAQ" on a person, just ask them about who has been hosting
    it for the last couple years. It is Taylor Jimenez, aks Taylor Netscum
    and aka several other names (with real and false addresses). That
    really says it all.

    Also ask the malicious spamming posters it they are legitimate why
    not give their names and fully identify themselves. Why are hoods
    posting using false names, anonymous, or otherwise in ways that they
    cannot be identified?

    I think minnesota sees what is going on here. It is illegal activity
    and I encourage all to help in anyway they can to deal with it.
    Here are some suggestions: Complain to Dr. Price's Internet Service
    Provider -- do that again and again, just as he spams and smears
    people off-topic here again and again. And, all do it (all complain).
    That could very well take care of John Price. About the others, well
    I don't know. Perhaps they can only be kill-filed. These guys
    operate out of alt.hackers.malicious and alt.2600. Perhaps a single
    nice post over at alt.2600 could put the spot-light on their
    inappropriate behavior. They MAY care somewhat what their peers think.
